Cleaning sieve
Term · Industrial and trades · MLC-T-IND-001145
A perforated screen or mesh used in agricultural machinery to separate desired grains or seeds from chaff, dust, and other foreign materials. These sieves are typically found in combines, threshers, and seed cleaning machines, where they vibrate or rotate to allow smaller particles to pass through while retaining larger ones. The mesh size of the sieve is selected based on the size of the crop being processed.
